Not super familiar with these names, but I believe Vector and STG do value-oriented SAAS deals which probably could probably include turnarounds.
Yeah I am familiar with Vector didn't think they touch turnaround.
Vector does turnaround.
Hasn't Clearlake done a couple of these?
There is a new fund called Bloom that I saw doing one of these. Happy to make an intro if you want.
My firm is also helping to operate and turn these around, www.firstprinciples.io but we don't have a fund yet.
I don't think they do turnaround? I know one of the founders and last I talked to him it seemed to be early stage venture + profitable SaaS buyout.
I had a look at their first deal, I'd describe it as distressed. 1X ARR and had no CEO for over a year.
I believe that's not the fund objective though, this might have been a one off.
Diversis
From what I've seen / heard, Diversis' legacy business was focused on finding distressed SaaS companies given their initial start as a fundless sponsor. With that being said, they've started moving upmarket with their recent fundraise as judged by some of their recent deals.
Could Primus fall into this category? I think they're not afraid to look at hairier opportunities.
Is starting an ecommerce business the best alternative to IB
What you mean by IB? What type of commerce specifically too

I don’t think it’s “turnaround” in the sense you’re looking for, but Constellation’s whole thing is effectively taking smaller software businesses, stripping out growth spending, and running them for cash. More of a capital allocation turnaround (stopping companies investing in low/negative ROIC projects)
Marlin Equity to some extent
